Transit police responded to the incident outside the Verizon building on Seventh Avenue near William Penn Place shortly before 3 p.m.

"Two, three girls come running up the sidewalk, pounding on the glass, saying, 'Let us in, let us in.' He opened the door, and they jumped in and helped jump in on the fight," Hanselman said.

Other passengers "were trying to get out of the way," he said.
